John, Yes, that would work as well, as would storing a bookmark. Both would be faster then the function code posted. The only drawback is that a requery invalidates positions and bookmarks, but that is not a major obstacle as long as your aware of it. The sample MDB I worked up has an example using bookmarks. You might want to take a look at the sample, as I use a slightly different technique (wish I could claim that I thought of it) to control row colors. The technique (use of a bound OLE control) not only allows for displaying of different colors, but graphics as well. Quite flexible. Jim Dettman President, Online Computer Services of WNY, Inc.

It uses an entire function to get the current line number. In my framework I use .RecordsetClone.AbsolutePosition. Can anyone comment on whether this replaces the function? John W.

Change the color of something...anything...but only on that record? Is this possible? Everything I tried changed the color of every instance of that control...not just the one on the current record? Any Ideas? Thanks, Mark _________________________________________________________________ Enjoy MSN 8 patented spam control and more with MSN 8 Dial-up Internet Service.
